Need help - Dell Inspiron 14 - SDD HDD won't boot

[firenice03]

Sorry guys, I'm giving up on this.  I rebuilt a bootable USB drive with 5.2 and I can load that system with 'Legacy' Boot Option. I run Install and it appears to complete an installation to the SSD, everything visible in File Manager.

I can also access the USB in UEFI mode and get to the Grub menu, but the Install options just seem to flicker the USB LED for a second and then nothing.

The SSD HDD system created with Legacy booted USB simply will not boot either in UEFI or Legacy Mode.  The Help manual doesn't really offer any useful suggestions and other forums Ubuntu, Xubuntu have posts from other folks struggling with these Dell SSDs.

It appears you just can't get there from here.

It may be the Dell - if you can try installing LL4.8 and see how that goes - I have a feeling it will work better. If so I have a feeling its the UEFI/BIOS of the Dell...????...
Might be worth a shot, install LL is a quick process...

Let us know how it fairs...
